Our Delta series amplifiers embody all that Classé represents:
innovation, technological achievement, consummate craftsmanship, and
iconic design. But they are not just the latest in the distinguished
line of Classé amplifiers to be launched since 1980. They are new,
revolutionary and unique.

Performance first
The original Delta series amplifiers won more than
critical acclaim. Elite audio professionals use them to master music and
movies that the whole world has enjoyed. Our newest amplifiers are even
better. Objectively, pure technical measurements prove they deliver our
highest performance ever. Subjectively, they simply blow audiences
away.

The Classé design team has created the ultimate
environment to amplify an audio signal. The entire amplification process
occurs on a single board, creating the most direct and transparent
signal path conceivable. Our uniquely miniaturized driver stage is
virtually noise free, so every nuance of the original signal reaches the
output stage. Here, vast quantities of clean power are controlled with
absolute precision. Suddenly, the world′s finest speakers sound even
better.

Performance fast
There is a relationship between temperature and
performance but it is widely misunderstood. Audiophiles say that optimal
performance is obtained when an amplifier is “warmed up,” but what does
this actually mean? When is it warm enough and when is it too warm?

The exposed heatsink fins found on conventional
amplifiers are passive.They can′t help circuits reach their ideal
temperature or keep them there throughout a listening session. They run
at a temperature wholly defined by their environment and how loud they
are playing. This can be far from ideal.

Heat management in Classé′s new Delta series
amplifiers is provided by the ICTunnel™ (pronounced Icy Tunnel), a
sensor- and microprocessor-controlled technology inspired by the
heatsinks found in high-power laser and medical equipment. Mounted
inside the unit, the ICTunnel™ actively regulates the amplifier
temperature to ensure both optimum performance and reliability.

From room temperature, the amplifiers warm up
fast. They reach their ideal temperature in less than fifteen minutes
and remain there regardless of how hard they are driven. No conventional
heatsink can do this.

In a Class by itself
Ground-breaking performance, prodigious power,
sophisticated control and rock-steady reliability—Classé′s new Delta
series is a giant leap in amplifier design. Thanks to exclusive
ICTunnel™ and audio technologies, only Classé amplifiers can
consistently deliver top performance and reliability in every
installation.
